This time every year, we gather around the metal pole and celebrate Festivus – the made up holiday from Seinfeld discussing our grievances. As is tradition – I will air mine. I’m disappointed in all of the following people. Harry Reid / Nancy Pelosi – Despite leading their respective caucuses to historic loses in the House and Senate, the two of them acted as though | Read More »

This is just pitiful. You’d think that John Cornyn would have learned his lesson, but he hasn’t.In a closed door meeting of Senate Republicans, John Cornyn lectured his colleagues that instead of going out and recruiting conservatives against his terrible NRSC hand-picked candidates, Senators should just come talk to him.Seriously?We got into this mess because Cornyn didn’t listen. He did not listen to those who | Read More »

Santa Fe New Mexican November 8, 2010 By Dr. Daniel Fine With the Republican Party’s newly won control of the House of Representatives, national energy policy could be rolled back to 2005, with all legislative advances under a Democratic Party majority at risk.

When I first found my way to RedState, now nearly a year ago, the first diary I read was by Art Chance. The man can write. His overarching message was about the use of power and how to use it aggressively, even ruthlessly. Take no prisoners. So said the aging eagle. Fascinating and written from an insider’s point of view as the Labor Relations Director | Read More »

The results of Nov. 2nd showed that that Republican candidates generally underperformed in virtually every Senate race. The statistics are alarming and should send a strong message to all Republicans who think that we can easily re-take the Senate in 2012. There is a complete analysis of the polling differentials for Republicans from pre-election polls to election day results at my Blog site at Real | Read More »

The time has come for the Senate Republicans to begin thinking about what to do with the National Republican Senatorial Committee, which this last cycle was run by Senator John Cornyn along with bureaucrat Rob Jesmer.

“The NRSC’s argument amounts to telling the world that voters exercising their right to pick their candidates are stupid and Jim DeMint is stupid for siding with the voters.” On November 2, 2010, the Republican Party made its largest single day gains in the House of Representatives since 1948 and, I have been told credibly, the largest gains of any political party in local, state, | Read More »

Apparently, the NRSC, having (ineptly) attempted to sabotage Tea Party Republicans, now wants potential contributors to think that they are best buds with Tea Partiers. Don’t believe me? Check this out. Of all the groups to try to hitch their wagon to the Tea Party, the NRSC should be last (at least among Republicans). I’ll give them this though – that takes some serious brass.
